A green background: Gratitide
A green background: Gratitude is not just “good manners” and it plays a significant role in overall wellbeing.
A green background: Gratitude is not just about receiving, it is also about giving. So what can you do with your child/ren or even yourself to express gratitude?
A green background: Taking just a bit of time to identify gratitude can have an impact.
A green background: Activity - Create a gratitude wall or space at home where everyone can write something they are grateful for - the whole family, visitors, friends. Seeing what others are grateful about is also quite powerful
A green background: Championing Health and well-being - Did you know? The Mayo Clinic found that “Expressing gratitude is associated with a host of mental and physical benefits. Studies have shown that feeling thankful can improve sleep, mood and immunity. Gratitude can decrease depression, anxiety, difficulties with chronic pain and risk of disease.”

A blue graphic that says Self Advocacy
A blue graphic that says Self-advocacy is the ability to understand and communicate your strengths, needs, interests, and goals.
A blue graphic that says: Self-advocacy can look different for everyone, but it often includes speaking up for yourself
A blue graphic that says: A person’s ability to self-advocate can be influenced by many factors, including personal identity, lived experiences, and how welcoming and inclusive different environments are.
A blue graphic that says: Activity: Celebrate strengths: Ask your child(ren) to share something they’re proud of and talk about the skills and strengths they used to accomplish it.
A blue graphic that says: CHAMPIONING HEALTH AND WELL-BEING: Studies show that students who develop strong self-advocacy skills are better equipped to seek help, understand their learning needs, and communicate effectively with teachers and peers. This leads to increased academic engagement and achievement (Test, 2017).
